Daniel Pezely — Authorized to work for any employer in US or Canada

Location: Vancouver

Remote: Negotiable, experienced

Willing to relocate: Negotiable

Technologies: Rust, Python, Cython, Common Lisp, Erlang, C; AWS, GCP; Debian-based Linux, FreeBSD, macOS/MacOSX; old school pure JavaScript in browser to exercise server-side API for delivering end-to-end functionality; learning Kotlin+Rust for Android Native

Résumé/CV: Linkedin.com/in/dpezely or Pezely.com/daniel

Email: first name at last name dot com

Currently specializing in Rust:

- Over 2.5 years as primary language, and began with 1.0-stable in mid-2015

- Rust mixed with Kotlin for going full Android Native, where Kotlin handles just UI (otherwise, I'm new to mobile dev)

Generalist from prior specializations in concurrency, scaling, exotic data storage, dev-ops, and long ago as a Unix sys-admin.

e.g., at Splunk/BugSense: rewrote the BugSense back-end from Erlang/Lisp/C to pure Erlang for ironically 25x performance increase. Server cluster saw several billion inbound requests per day non-stop from all time zones. (See GitHub for slides from Erlang Factory and other presentations.)
